Volume II, Chapter 1

On the Leizhou Peninsula in the southwest of Guangdong Province, there is a small village close to the Qiongzhou Strait, which is located on a raised hill, hence the name Shipo Village. The villagers in Shipo Village are basically surnamed Lin, and these villagers surnamed Lin are all ancestors.

The ancestor surnamed Lin was originally a very wealthy salt merchant in the coastal area of Fujian, and later because he offended the officials and couldn't get mixed up in the local area, he moved his family to the Leizhou Peninsula in the middle of the Qing Dynasty. The ancestor surnamed Lin spent money to buy 1,500 acres of fertile land under Shipo Village, and then rented the land to tenants for cultivation, and his own local owner collected rent every year. The ancestor surnamed Lin had five adult sons, and he made a family rule, and the five sons rotated from the eldest son to the bottom, and each son received a year's rent, and if there were no sons, the eldest grandson would replace him. The son who collects the land rent pays 50 percent of the rent as an offering for the whole extended family, and the rest belongs to himself. At that time, the Lin family's land was contiguous, the people were prosperous, and the rich party was rich. A few generations after the death of the Lin ancestor, people fought endlessly for the family property, and this family rule was abolished. During the Republic of China, the thousands of acres of fertile land under this Shipo village have been divided into many large and small pieces, and the descendants of the surname Lin have also multiplied to hundreds of people, but the most land in the village is still the descendants of the ancestors of the surname Lin, Lin Nancai and Lin Nanhui.

This Lin Nancai is in his forties, shrewd and calculating, diligent and thrifty in managing his family, he is not only the local owner of Shipo Village, but also runs a business in the nearby Haitou Town, and his business is booming. He soaked in the business field all day long, always carrying an abacus in his armpit, and as long as he thought of something on the road, he would use the abacus to play twice, so he was nicknamed: iron abacus. Lin Nanhui, a younger brother who is more than ten years younger than his brother, is not interested in farming and doing business, he likes to call friends and dance guns and sticks since he was a child, and he causes trouble outside for three days, but he is very upright and righteous. Brother Lin Nancai thought that the Lin family's generations of landlords had never produced a real scholar, and he originally wanted his younger brother to study in the big city of Guangzhou to see the outside world, but Lin Nanhui only studied in high school and never wanted to study anymore, and played outside all day long. Lin Nancai was busy with business all day long, and he didn't have too much time and energy to take care of this brother, so he let him do as he pleased. Lin Nanhui passed the year of establishment in a flash, and the one who did not achieve fame was still a single person who fed the whole family and was not hungry.

Haitou Town is adjacent to Qiongzhou Strait Wharf in the south, is the distribution center of people and goods on both sides of the mainland and Hainan Island, Lin Nancai is located in the only road in the town, it is the only road between the mainland and Hainan Island. Lin Nancai's hotel business is booming, there are people who look red, there are people who want to compete, and there are people who want to grab it and replace it.

There is an evil force in this Haitou Town, and the leader of this evil force is called Lin Nankui, his ancestral home is from Shipo Village, and he is also Lin Nancai's brother. Lin Nankui's grandparents were lazy when they were in Shipo Village, eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling squandered their family's fields and real estate, and they were poor households in Shipo Village who could barely wear pants, and they didn't even have money to buy a coffin when they died. His father moved from Shipo Village to Haitou Town to work as handymen to make ends meet. This Lin Nankui was born a bad species, and he didn't do much good things since he was a child, but he did a lot of bad things such as digging up the graves of widows, kicking widows' doors, and abducting and stealing. He made a group of fox friends in the society, and he did evil all day long, bullying men and women, and robbing merchants, which was a scourge that everyone in Haitou Town feared. Ever since he spent money to buy a security captain in Haitou Town, he has become even more unscrupulous.

Lin Nankui's father also opened a hotel in Haitou Town, but his inn was not in a good location, and his son had a bad reputation, so the hotel was a black shop that stabbed customers, and its business was far worse than Lin Nancai's Yuehai Hotel. Lin Nankui's father was first envious, then jealous, and then hateful to the Guangdong Hotel, bent on bringing it down and then taking it for himself. After he told his son Lin Nankui his thoughts, Lin Nancai's Guangdong Hotel has never had a peaceful life since then.

In order to bring down the Yuehai Hotel, Lin Nankui first bought off the town's tax director, who sent people to the Yuehai Hotel to check taxes twice in three days, and framed the Yuehai Hotel for tax evasion, and wanted to severely fine Lin Nancai a tax. Lin Nancai knew that he couldn't afford to provoke others, so he had to think that he was unlucky, he not only paid the taxes in full, but also paid a sum of money to the tax director in order to ensure the safety of the future, but he also paid tribute to the tax commissioner after receiving the money, and accused Lin Nancai of bribing government officials. Not long after the tax evasion turmoil, Lin Nankui broke into the Guangdong Hotel with the security team, saying that the Guangdong Hotel harbored the ** wanted by the government, and after a search, the Guangdong Hotel turned the hotel upside down. After that, there were often ruffians and hooligans harassing and scolding the guests in front of the Yuehai Hotel, and most of the business travelers who came and went from then on did not dare to live in the Yuehai Hotel, Lin Nancai's business was much colder, and Lin Nankui's father took advantage of the danger to open a new Xinglong Hotel next to the Yuehai Hotel, and the Yuehai Hotel was squeezed to the point of closing. Lin Nanhui, who was in Shipo Village, knew about this incident and went to Haitou Town to find his eldest brother Lin Nancai to inquire about the situation, Lin Nancai told his brother that Lin Nankui was making trouble behind his back, and Lin Nanhui, who was strong-blooded, was very angry after hearing it.

Lin Nanhui had heard of Lin Nankui, a ruffian, Lin Nankui was a cousin in his own clan, he wanted to reason with him, but his eldest brother Lin Nancai stopped him and said: "Nanhui, that Lin Nankui is a tyrant in Haijiao Town, you can't afford to mess with him!" I think we'll put up with it. If this hostel can't be opened, we have other business in the town, and if we don't do business in the town, we still have a lot of land in Shipo Village. ”

Lin Nancai doesn't want to cause trouble, and he swallows bitter water in his stomach, but this Lin Nanhui is a good man who dances with guns and sticks, and he is also a master who can't tolerate bullying by others on weekdays. He knew that no matter how strong his martial arts were, he couldn't fight Lin Nankui's group, so he decided to find an opportunity to fight Lin Nankui alone, so Lin Nanhui walked around Lin Nankui's door every day, waiting for Lin Nankui's opportunity to leave the house alone. Lin Nankui always likes to call friends on weekdays, even at home, fox friends and dog friends are constantly coming and going, and there are few people who go alone, and one day Lin Nanhui will wait for him to get out of the house alone.

This morning, Lin Nanhui saw Lin Nankui wearing a black security uniform, swaying his body and swaggering out of the house, so he walked up head-on, and he blocked Lin Nankui's way with his hands on his waist. Lin Nankui was very angry when he saw someone blocking the way, and he scolded: "Good dogs don't get in the way, get out of the way!" ”

Lin Nanhui grabbed Lin Nankui's neck and said, "You are the dog!" ”

Lin Nankui, who is used to being powerful on weekdays, never imagined that someone in Haitou Town would dare to be so rude to him! He was angry and anxious, and while scolding, he shook off the other party's hand vigorously, and he used his strength to break free, but the other party's hand grabbed him tightly like an iron tong. He had to stop and break free and asked Lin Nanhui in a threatening tone: "What do you want to do?" Don't you know who Lao Tzu is? ”

Lin Nanhui smiled contemptuously: "Who doesn't know you Lin Nankui, aren't you just a hooligan and a rotten boy!" As he spoke, he grabbed Lin Nankui's neck tighter, and Lin Nankui was so suffocated that he could barely breathe.

Lin Nankui knew that he had met someone who was difficult to deal with, so he hurriedly changed to a kind tone and said: "Good man, let go, please tell me who you are, our brothers have something to say." ”

Lin Nanhui said: "You don't know me, I know you, we are still cousins." ”

Lin Nankui rolled his eyes and said, "If you want to say that, I guess you are from Shipo Village." ”

"You guessed it, I'm Lin Nanhui from Shipo Village, and Lin Nancai is my brother." He picked up Lin Nankui like a chicken and let go, Lin Nankui couldn't stand on his feet and took several steps backwards before he stabilized himself. As the saying goes, one thing descends one thing, and this hooligan who is usually not afraid of anything is a little afraid of Lin Nanhui who has a fierce look in front of him at this time.

Lin Nanhui approached again at this time, and he asked, "Did you collapse the Yuehai Hotel opened by my brother?" ”

At this time, Lin Nankui had come to his senses, and he returned to his usual arrogance, he crossed his waist with one hand and pointed to Lin Nanhui's nose with the other and said: "Let me tell you, Lin Nancai's hostel evaded taxes and evaded taxes, and he harbored the Communist Party's key criminals, and his business collapsed purely because of his own fault!" I see that in the face of my fellow clan, I was already very polite if I didn't arrest him in prison. ”

"You're planting! It's clear that your family is robbing my family's business, and you're squirting blood! In a hurry, he grabbed Lin Nankui's neck again.

Lin Nankui's face was flushed with anger, and he shouted hoarsely: "I'm the security captain, you let go quickly!" Otherwise, I'll call for someone to arrest you!" ”

Lin Nanhui let go of him and said: "You are the captain of the security guard, I can't afford to provoke you because of the crowd, today I want to fight with you alone, let's make a gentleman's agreement: if I lose to you, my family's Yuehai Hotel will be given to you for nothing, and I will never do business in Haitou Town from now on, if you lose to me, your family's Xinglong Hotel will be closed immediately, and in the future, our two families will do their own business and not disturb each other, what do you think?" ”

This Lin Nankui is also a martial arts practitioner since he was a child, he has practiced Nanquan to the fullest, and has a ruthlessness that is not afraid of heaven and earth, he has not met an opponent in Haitou Town, he heard that Lin Nanhui wanted to test martial arts with himself, he couldn't help snickering in his heart, and hurriedly agreed: "Okay!" That's a good idea! But you have to talk the talk! I won you today, and tomorrow I will go to collect your family's Guangdong Hotel. ”

Lin Nanhui said happily: "No problem, let's follow the rules of the rivers and lakes, a gentleman's word, the horse is difficult to chase!" ”

When the two of them were talking, some people around them watched the excitement one after another, and Lin Nankui said to the people around him: "You have heard what this kid said, when the time comes, he will be cheating, you will testify to me!" ”

Lin Nanhui didn't say anything, he just smiled with confidence. Then Lin Nanhui and Lin Nankui took off their shirts and went bare-chested, and found a spacious place in the alley to face each other.

As soon as the two fought, Lin Nanhui knew that he was underestimating his opponent. This Lin Nankui's southern punch is compact, fast, flexible, and ruthless, using fists, elbows and knees at the same time, and the move is forced to Lin Nanhui's life, at first Lin Nanhui only had the ability to parry, and almost had no power to fight back. After taking a few heavy blows, Lin Nanhui adapted to Lin Nankui's moves, and in the ensuing fight, he saw Lin Nankui's moves, saw the situation, and stabilized his mentality. Lin Nanhui is nearly ten years younger than Lin Nankui, young and strong, Lin Nankui is usually greedy for wine, and his body and bones gradually become weak in the fight, and his strength is exhausted, and Lin Nanhui gradually has the upper hand in the fight between the two. Lin Nanhui wanted to end the competition quickly, so he deliberately sold a flaw and put down his hands protecting the face door, Lin Nankui also wanted to knock the opponent down as soon as possible, and when he saw the opportunity, he punched Lin Nanhui in the face. Lin Nanhui saw that his opponent was fooled and secretly applauded, he used a common trick in Taijiquan to fold his back, and rushed up to the punch with his left hand, stepped forward with his right foot, rushed forward and turned to the left at the same time, and hit Lin Nankui's chest with his right shoulder back, Lin Nankui only felt a shock in his chest, and his whole body was knocked out of the air. Lin Nanhui's move made it simple and neat, and the onlookers applauded in unison. Lin Nankui, who fell to the ground, rolled on the spot and stood up again, Lin Nancai took advantage of the fact that he had not yet stood firmly, stepped forward and kicked Lin Nankui to the ground, this time Lin Nankui couldn't get up. Lin Nanhui raised his fist and asked Lin Nankui, who was lying on the ground covering his chest and grinning: "Do you accept it?" If you are not convinced, you can still get up and try again, brother, I will accompany you to the end! ”

Lin Nankui knew that he was not Lin Nanhui's opponent, and he was still a good man who didn't eat the losses in front of him, so he had to say in a loud voice: "I'm convinced, I'm convinced, I'm not fighting!" ”

"Good! Then please follow our gentleman's agreement! I'll give you a week! After Lin Nanhui finished speaking, he put on the posture of a victor and walked away with his head held high.

Lin Nanhui returned to the Guangdong Hotel with satisfaction, and he told his brother that the Xinglong Hotel next to it would be closed within a week, and our Guangdong Hotel would be reorganized. Lin Nancai didn't understand his brother's words, thinking that there was something wrong with his nerves. Lin Nanhui saw that his brother didn't believe him, so he completely recounted the bet with Lin Nankui to his brother, and Lin Nancai was shocked when he heard it! persuade my younger brother to hurry back to Shipo Village. He said that this Lin Nankui is a local bully, not a gentleman, where is there integrity at all? If you beat him today, you stabbed the hornet's nest, he has power, a gun and a man, and he will come to you to settle accounts immediately! Not only will our hostel not be opened at all, but that guy will extort us money again. Lin Nanhui only understood the seriousness of this matter when he heard his brother say this, and when he was about to run back to Shipo Village, Lin Nankui had already surrounded the Yuehai Hotel with the security team.

Lin Nankui captured Lin Nanhui and took off the plaque of the Guangdong Hotel. When he took Lin Nanhui away, he said to Lin Nancai: "You are limited to take the money to ransom people within three days, and you will bear the consequences if you don't redeem after the expiration date!" ”

Back in the security team, Lin Nankui personally whipped Lin Nanhui violently, and threw him into the dark water prison after relieving his anger. Lin Nanhui was in prison and regretted, regretting that he had good intentions but ruined his hotel, and hated Lin Nankui, this kid who was not righteous and didn't count, and thought that he must settle accounts with him when he comes out one day!
